Our gig at MOTIF last Friday was canceled because we couldn't make it down Hwy 24 from Woodland Park to Old Colorado City due to this...

We were stopped in traffic further up the pass. We are grateful that we did not have to experience this first hand. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people whose lives were affected by this powerful flood.

MOTIF was 'sold out' Friday night with friends and fans.

We are so sorry we had to miss!

But, we are getting a do over!

We would SO APPRECIATE it if you would take a chance and try this again...

Why no, we aren't a big band, thanks for noticing. But Pippa made an impression on event organizers enough that they asked our little quartet to the party anyway. And what a party it will be! Stick around after our hour of fun to hear Swing Factory, the Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra, the US Army National Guard Band and the "Centennial Wind Ensemble". Music plays until 3pm, jazz lovers!

Admission to this outdoor event where the stage backdrop is the north face of Pikes Peak (see above) is absolutely FREE! Bring your picnic basket and your kids and have brunch on the lawn in the cool of the day while Pippa swings your face off.
